Core Tip	The occurrence of perianal ulcer is generally considered bacterial or fungal infection. If long-term treatment is ineffective, rare infection types such as tuberculosis infection should be considered. Early diagnosis can avoid the erosion of perianal skin, mucous membranes and muscles. We report a case of disseminated tuberculosis in a 62-year-old male patient with a perianal tuberculous ulcer and active pulmonary, intestinal and orificial tuberculosis. A computed tomography scan revealed active tuberculosis, whereas a colonoscopy showed lesions in the ileum, suggestive of intestinal tuberculosis. The pathology report was consistent with granulomatous inflammation, and the histological analysis of the ulcer and perianal granulation tissue revealed granulomatous lesions of unknown nature. The T-spot test was positive. The patient was treated and cured with standard anti-tuberculosis drugs, whose regimen we describe in this case study.
